Most, if not all of us biz-e-chicks are on Facebook. We love to see and hear what our fellow peeps are doing, even if we only have a couple minutes to check our favorite social networking site. Status updates are the best at keeping us connected to one another. We may not have time to visit your page, check out your Wall and leave you a message; but, chances are we have time to glance at your status and leave a quick comment about it.
So, how do you decide what to post as your status? Do you post only business-related updates? Only personal updates? Do you only write only about things that are funny or happy? (By the way, do you notice that “bad” things rarely happen in a status? You usually don’t see “XXX had a huge fight with her husband today. Or, “XXX overdrew her bank account today … again.”)
I usually write about the fun or interesting things that have happened that day. I posted recently about how I was still cracking up about a conversation I heard on the elevator between two women who were discussing what a third, not-present woman needed to do to keep her man. Their solution was for her to keep her legs closed. Within seconds of writing that, the notifications that “so-and-so has made a comment about your status” were flooding in. It’s funny how the silliest, most random things get the most attention. But, I guess since that’s true in real life, it would be true on Facebook, too.
So, what about you chicks? How do you choose what your status update will be? Is it really what you’re doing “right now”? Which of your updates have attracted the most attention? And, why do you think that is?
What are you Doing Right now?
